À propos de cet audio

June 29th, 1978. Bob Crane—star of Hogan’s Heroes—was found bludgeoned to death in his Scottsdale apartment, a cord around his neck and severe head wounds from a blunt object. There was no sign of forced entry.

Crane had been living a double life: beloved sitcom actor by day, consumed by his obsession with sex and videotaping by night. His friend, video technician John Carpenter, often joined him, helping record his encounters.

Behind the laughter was a man consumed by obsession. Fame fed his ego. The camera fed his need for control.

When Crane tried to walk away, the story turned deadly.
